Numerical modeling method for dynamic behaviour of masonry towers

Jerzy Szolomicki

Abstract


Dynamic behaviour model is essential to the reliability evaluation and restoration structure of historical masonry towers. In this paper author developed the identification techniques and the main influence factors on the dynamic behaviour of historical masonry towers. Besides sensitivity analysis and model updating criteria are discussed.
